So I had an epiphany this morning. This may come as absolutely no surprise to some of you, but to me it was a startling and frankly embarrassing revelation:

I have a drinking problem.

I've always thought of a "drinking problem" as another name for medically-diagnosable alcoholism. My mother's father was an alcoholic -- he was drunk most of the time ( Read more... )

This? Is hysterical. Also, Subtext Billy Bob reminds me of somebody. And by somebody, I mean Scott. "Rage boner." Hah. Also? The interviewer, it turns out, is Jian Ghomeshi of Moxy Fruvous (which I remember as a great band we listened to in high school because Jean Genie had taste), and a solid hottie. Win-win.

In other news:

Saturday, I went for a ( Read more... )

Before I say anything else, I just need to say that I'm basically using this icon because I made it the other night and couldn't wait. There are no less than 55 frames going in that baby, and it's at 68 colors, and I'm frankly astonished I managed to work it down under the 40k limit. Jean Genie, show Bernard, she'll be amused. I don't know if ( Read more... )

I alternately tell myself I'm going to post more and decide to just cancel my LJ account altogether. I can still have an f-list and comment without pretending I'm maintaining a journal of my own ( Read more... )

Flist? nikitangel , cabell , of_new_horizons , surely you guys have some thoughts.

My job just sucks out my life force, man.

Anyway.

I hate snow. I hate snow possibly more than I did in Wisconsin, actually, because when we have snow -- any snow at all -- everybody FREAKS OUT. And as a results, we start our morning show an hour earlier, meaning that I have to be in an hour earlier. That's 3:00 a.m., y'all. That's ( Read more... )

Previously unobserved car issues "found" by mechanic: $1700 ( Read more... )

I can't seem to stop watching House of 1000 Corpses over and over again. It's just... it's so much fun, especially compared to The Devil's Rejects, which was after Rob Zombie knew what he was doing. In H1KC, he's still sort of flinging everything at the screen to see what sticks, and that's a recipe for entertaining drive-in cinema if you ask me ( Read more... )
